One Night in October (the crazy story on how Key met Josh)

By Keyshla(@Marieme27) & Danna Aissa(@DannaAissa)

DANNA:

The internet world is so huge. Everybody is talking, there are tons of information everywhere and sometimes you don’t know what you can trust and what you can’t. So here is a little, funny, crazy story about that:

It was Sunday October 5th, a day before ‘The Affair’ premiered, and I came across this information telling that Josh and Diane had been seen around 54th street and 7th avenue in New York. Well, I live far away in Europe, but I knew that Key had been trying to find Josh during the filming of ‘The Affair’. So on Monday morning (my morning, her night ;P ) I thought it would be nice to send Key a Direct Message on Twitter and see if she could go and take a look. I thought she’d pass on such a crazy messages.

KEY:

October 6th, 2014, IS A DAY TO REMEMBER!......I'll always remember it. Danna DMed me at 5am and I wanted to choke her, I put my phone on vibrate, but still, she woke me up. I saw her DMs, with info on how to find Josh (what a stalker). At first, I didn't know what to tell her, I tried to find Josh before, but *sigh*... I thought I'd tell her 'I can't do this'', I was busy, I had an interview that day and turns out, it was close to the place Danna told me to go. So after my interview, I decided to trust agent Danna Aissa and started looking for Josh!

DANNA:

It was my Monday night, I got to see The Affair (episode 1) online and, when I was about to go to sleep, Key sent me a DM. She was there! at the place I told her and she didn’t know what to do...

So from here the first part of the mission consisted on trying to find the hotel where they were staying around the area I had heard about, and see if she could meet them when they left for the premiere. So I (from my couch, somewhere in Europe) was on Google Maps finding hotels in that area of NYC and sending Key there through Direct Messages on Twitter... And suddenly...

I really thought she found them!!! but no...

As they obviously weren’t at the hotel, our second part of the mission started here: finding the place where the premiere was. I first thought about the original address I found (there was a theatre there) and sent Key there.

At that moment my intuition said she was going to meet him although I had no idea how. I started looking for the address where the premiere was. Obviously that information was very well hidden, but I found this website with an address. I didn’t know whether it was true or not, and besides that place was a little bit far... but I sent Key there anyway. We were chatting through Twitter while she was walking by the streets of NYC until she got there:

KEY:

It happened all so fast, but it was awesome. The premiere of 'The Affair' was over and Josh was like the last one (important one, he was the most important for me, of course), to get out of the place with Diane and others. The photographers were waiting just for them, seriously because when Dominic went out, it was so....normal, quiet, not like 'DOMINIC, DOMINIC, another photo please'....they just took like 2 or 3, maybe!

Anyway, I SAW JOSH, and I asked him if I could take a picture with him and he was like 'of course' so nice, so natural, but he was in a hurry. Either way, I stopped him and the only thing I could tell him, after the pic, was 'You were great as Peter Bishop'... (seriously, he did a great job as Peter). And he told me 'Thank you' and that was special for me, I don't know how to explain it, it was like it meant a lot to him or he wasn't expecting that at all, someone to tell him that there, because I'm sure a lot of people have told him that. Maybe it was just my imagination, whatever, it was a beautiful 'thank you' and I told him 'thank you' too, with a really big, kinda freaky smile on my face ... I was in shock, ok!

Then, Diane called him *rolls eyes* so he went to the car which was full. Josh sat in the front seat and Diane sat on his lap and all the photographers and guards were like 'aww'... that was cute, yeah!

The important thing is that I met him. Earlier that day he answered one of my questions on Facebook and one of Danna's questions too. I touched him, I breathed his same air lol, I have a photo with him, and he knows that I exist. He really is so down to earth, plus a gorgeous, smart and adorable man....... Everything was worth it. Mission Accomplished, but I NEED TO MEET HIM, AGAIN.

Prophetic Scenes (Part IX)

By Danna Aissa (@DannaAissa)

During my last Fringe rewatch I took note of some scenes that give us clues to what will happen further on. Some of them are so big that you can't believe they're revealing that information at that point, and some of them are simply little anecdotes. I thought it would be fun to put them together here.

We know, Walter...

Did you notice how similar these conversations are? In both cases it was their last conversation. And in both cases they couldn't keep their promises...

More scenes next Tuesday!

Fringetastic Night: Meeting Josh & Anna

By Arianne Robbins (@fringe__forever)

It was the night of Wednesday, January 18th 2012. Aside from being clear and beautiful, it was also -17 degrees Celsius, the coldest day of the year. My mom, little brother Alex and I walked down Alexander St (in Gastown) at a leisurely pace, as our feet were already beginning to freeze and stiffen.

I clapped my hands in glee and smiled widely as I caught sight of black tents, accompanied by a set of tracks with cameras mounted upon them.

Next to the tracks, a silver Nissan Leaf was parked. I recognized it as Olivia's car! The set was like a beehive, there were constant movements and shouting. In front of the set, a group of people has gathered and were chatting excitedly. Once we reached the swarm, I reached into my bag and took out my clipnote. Inside, I had carefully arranged in this order, my envelope for Anna (containing: the drawing I did of her and a fan letter), two copies of a photo edit I did of Josh, John and Anna (hopefully to be signed!) and a printout of the filming notice with the address.

My small pale hands shook with nervous excitement as I clutched my clipnote tight, teeth gritted against the cold. My blue eyes wandered towards the tents in the left and I saw JOSHUA JACKSON! I whispered to my mom: "That's him! Joshua Jackson IN THE FLESH!" My mom just looked at me and said "Why don't you go over and say hi? You might not get the chance later!" And so I did! Calmly, I strode over to where he was standing, taking pictures with a couple of fans. Once they left, I looked him straight in the eyes and said "Hi! I'm Arianne. I'm a HUGE fan of Fringe! Could you please sign this for me?" I held out my photo edit and a blue pen. He then asked me, " What's your name?". I told him and he replied "Arianne... Is that FRENCH?". I told him yes it was indeed! Then he went on to say how he and Diane have a house in France and how much they love it there. He and my mom talked for awhile too! He then signed " To Arianne, enjoy our show, Joshua Jackson". I thanked him and asked if I could have my picture taken with him. He encircled my waist with his right hand and my mom clicked away. I said thank you once more, told him he was awesome, and went back to stand and watch the filming.

I stood there, shivering and smiling like an idiot. In my mind I

thought to myself "WHERE IS ANNA?!?!" And right before my eyes, there she was. She chatted quickly with Joel and climbed into the Nissan Leaf. And just like that, the camera began rolling and Joel called out "ACTION!" She opened the door, looked left than right, stride down the street and caught sight of Peter leaving a building. He saw her also, and she broke into a run. He opened his arms to her, and she flung herself at him. He twirled her around while gazing into her eyes lovingly. They closed the embrace with a passionate kiss. "CUT!" Joel called, and they broke apart. Anna patted Josh on the back, they smiled at each other and she headed back to the car. There, she had her makeup touched up, and they filmed the scene again.

When they stopped for a break before filming resumed, Anna was walking back towards the tent. I heard my mon say to me "THAT'S YOUR CHANCE!" So, I took it! I jogged over towards the tent, raising my voice slightly "Anna! Could I please talk to you for a second?" She stopped in mid stride and turned towards me. I asked politely, "Could you please sign this for me?" holding out my photo edit and the blue pen. She took it from me, and signed it. I asked if I could have my picture taken with her, and she said to me "Of course!" in her super cute Aussie accent, and put her arm around me! After my mom took the first picture, she said to Anna "I'm sorry, your eyes were closed, could we have another?" Anna blushed, said she was sorry, and yes.

It was very sweet! My mom got a good shot of us, and packed away the camera. I turned toward Anna and pulled out the envelope I had brought for her, and handed it to her. She took it, looked me STRAIGHT IN THE EYES OH MY GOD, and beamed at me! "Thank you!!" she said. I melted. "You're very welcome!!" I said and smiled. Just as I was leaving, she caught my shoulder and said "I stole the cap of your pen!" and handed it I'm back to me. I smiled again and said that was perfectly okay. I told her she was awesome, and wonderful. Then we took one last look around, and left.

THE END!

Ps. I wrote this the day after it happened, back in 2012. I was only 14 at the time (I'm almost 18 now)!

Etta is Ella: Georgina Haig Remembers

By Arianne Robbins (@fringe__forever)

On August 19th 2014, exactly a week after my last visit to the set of “Once Upon A Time” my friends and I returned to continue our adventures.

All I wanted out of that day was to simply somehow ask Georgina if she had gotten the chance to read my letter that I had given to her last week. So when I found out that she was on set that day, my heart skipped a beat and I was filled with hope that this could actually happen!

After she had finished shooting her very short scene (which we figured was for the promo shoot and not the episode) my group and all of the other fans had been moved adjacent to the diner that they were filming outside of. I was talking to my friends when I realized that our friend Ella was not with us.

I spotted her across the street with Sarah (The Leaf Lady- she distributes leaves on the street of Stevenson and tends to all the foliage on set. She's awesome!) and……. Georgina! That's when I went into autopilot. I had to somehow get myself over there! So, I very calmly pulled my folder out of my bag that contained the picture of Georgina and I from last week. I tucked it under my arm, and wormed my way out from under the barricade separating the fans from the set.

All of the shooting for that portion of the morning had wrapped, so nobody even said a word to me as I calmly strode across main street. At one point, I was walking next to a crew member, and I simply asked him how his day was going, to which he responded that so far it was quite splendid indeed. Five or six strides later, I was outside of the diner, with Georgina’s smiling face looking down at me. I felt like I couldn't breathe.

There were no barricades between us, and only one security guy and Sarah as members of the crew. I stood next to Ella, and soon my friends Erin and Annamaria joined us.

When Georgina saw me, she said "Ohh hi!" And I said "Do you..." But before I could finish she said "I remember you! I read your letter!" (She sounded so excited and happy you guys! I was close to tears then!) And I said "Oh! That's great! Did you like it?" And she said "Yes, I did!" And smiled at me. My heart pretty much stopped then, and I stuttered out "I just thought it might.... I don't know.." But she kept talking in her cute little Aussie accent, "You've even got the braid again! Thanks for coming back!" And I said "Yeah, I wear it almost every day because it's the easiest thing for my curly hair. Could you please sign the picture from last time?" And she said "Yeah! Sure! Of course!" And signed it like she normally would, but with an XO too (officially dead now....OMG!) And then I gushed out "Oh my gosh, last time I was just so excited to meet you! Now I'm like, shaking, *laughs* and I mean I didn't like, cry or anything 'till I got home because I've met like Anna and Josh and meeting you was just so great!" And she said "Awww, bless you!" While looking into my eyes and smiling so, so sweetly. And I just smiled at her really big and said "And I was so happy when you came back to Vancouver, because I didn't get to meet you during Fringe, and it meant that I had a second chance! This means so much to me!" And she looked so in awe, like she couldn't believe that someone would ever be such a fan of hers. Then we hugged. It was amazing, and probably the cutest thing ever! I love Georgina!
